Hi all, I am currently installing a 7K carby engine in the ke30. Just wanted to share my thoughts on the progress so far as it might help others. Got a 7K engine from melbourne and we have rebuilt it completely including a new flywheel and HD clutch kit ( 4K flywheel and clutch and a spigot bearing rsb 508) Used the 4K sump to get the measurements to cut the 7K sump. Cut the sump completely just below where it mates to the block and then cut 20 mm off the sump all the way round. Rewelded sump. Used the 4K oil pump as 7K one is too long in the modified sump. Did a trial install in the engine bay and it fits perfectly using the original engine mounts from the 7K engine. The left hand lower mount for the gearbox from the 4K needs to be massaged a bit to fit the 7K block but the drivers side fits perfectly. Using the 7K starter motor and the 4K alternator, also the 4K fuel pump and distributor. Using the 7K inlet manifold as it is a better design than the 4K one and a set of headers.Also a 32/36 Weber rejetted for the 7K engine. That’s about it for the moment, currently stripping the body paint and getting the car ready for a full 2pack repaint. Will update with photos as we proceed.

Hello all. Was wondering about the engine swap ideas in KE70 as it would be a daily driver. Fuel injected 7k will be a good idea in my opinion as it will be bolt on to the gear box and foundations. What suspension do you all suggest? I want height adjustment on both front and rear. because my parking lot is 3 feet higher then road. car cannot go inside being lowered. I want the most economical system for suspension. May be just air bags and a tank plus compressor just to lift the car up and then lower it by deflating the bags. kindly provide your valuable feedback. kind regards Danish

hey everyone... have had an oil leak where the fuel pump connects to the block. I went to change it and realised there was a spacer that was cracked and i cannot put the fuel pump on without it. I have called repco and they have no listing. I'm stuck for options. I'm not at home, I'm down the coast. I kinda need to fix the eproblem. So far i have used araldite on the spacer back together and am going to try to put it back with the gasket maker silicone... just to get me home about an hour away. I need to know if i can buy this part, if anyone has one for sale Or what i can do to fix it. its about 6 mm thick The engine is a 7K-E converted to a weber 40 side draft. thanks. here are some photos
